What is a padel court?

Padel courts are a type of court used for the sport of padel, which is a racquet sport played in a enclosed court. The court is similar in size to a traditional tennis court, but with shorter side walls and a higher net. The game is played by two players using a squash-style racquet and a hollow ball made of plastic or similar material.

Padel is a fast-paced and exciting sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and fitness levels. The game is played on a hard court surface with enclosed side walls, making it easy to control the ball and allowing for more pinpoint accuracy when playing shots.

The padel court is marked with lines similar to a traditional tennis court, including the baseline, service line, and the center line. The court is divided into two halves by the net, which is usually made of plastic or similar material and is attached to the side walls at the top of the court.

Padel courts can be installed indoors or outdoors and can be used for both competitive and recreational play. They are usually constructed with a hard surface such as concrete or asphalt, although some courts may have a synthetic grass surface for a more natural playing feel.

If you are interested in playing padel or would like to know more about the sport, it is recommended that you seek out local padel clubs or organizations that can provide further information on how to get involved.
